Guidelines:
prepare a 10 minute powerpoint slide show
Start out with a title slide that has the Journal Article name, Journal Name and Authors on it.
Put YOUR name on title slide also since you are presenting.
Put the date of the presentation on their as well - and something like 'VDS Summer Journal Club'
Create an introduction that provides a broad perspective for the specific [[#|work]] being presented. For example, if you are presenting a [[#|paper]] on a new protein, you should provide some background on the protein family and what it does. Don't assume that everyone in your audience knows the background. You can use your own content if you like - along with that given by the authors.
Include a picture or image that helps give a visual for the background.
Include any statistics about the disease and its prevalence (this is motivation)
Instead of simply describing the methods used, look at the methods critically, with an eye for anything interesting or unusual. Point out anything that might be generally useful. For example, did the authors use any techniques that we are currently using in our lab?
Include graphs and figures from the paper.Use the SNIPPING tool in Windows to get pictures of the graphs, etc. from the paper. However, you will want a few 'original' images of your own. You can also make your own cartoons and schematic diagrams or show relevant pictures to get across the point.
Make an effort to explain what is going on in the figures (try to include all of them - but you can leave out some if they do not contribute to a 10 minute presentation)
Be sure to actually show the images and figures from the paper when talking about them (include some type of caption)
Do the results suggest any additional experiments that would be the next.?
Feel free to interject your own viewpoint of the research (is it valuable, did they do anything you liked or disliked?)
Clearly explain the significance of the results. Results by themselves are dull, unless they have significance. The significance may not be obvious to the audience, so point it out specifically.
What is the most significant contribution of the specific work to the field in general?
Try to appear truly interested (even excited!) about the work you are presenting. Enthusiasm is contagious, and keeps your audience interested. Can you think of anything to make your presentation unique? An unusual prop or visual aid? Make your presentation "professional". That means, stand up in front, look directly at your audience, and don't "read" your slides.
Go through your talk at least once as a practice run
TIPS:
for best contrast and readability - use black text on white background.
Put date on the title slide
When you get to a figure, explain what is on the X axis and what is on the Y-axis. This helps them understand the graph and also gives a little time for them to view the graph and digest what is being shown.
For graphs and tables - be sure to explicitly state what the 'take home message' of that figure is. What does the graph tell the reader?
Run a draft of your presentation by Dr. B a few days before you present it.
Upload your presentation before class to the GroupMeetingSlides/GroupMeetingSlides/StudentPresentations folder on Google Docs
